You can see from the photos that we had a frost this morning but it made for some lovely views as I did my early morning run. I couldn't help but stop for a few moments halfway round to enjoy the sight of the sheep in the field, the sky clear and chill.
We were very busy all day, not just refreshing updates on the latest from the US election. We were quickly off to the allotment where we picked some spinach, chard, onions and lettuce. From there we popped into the garden centre for some compost, as I still have to plant some onion and leek seeds in trays for the winter so we can get a head start in the spring. We also got a fern for the front room to hide the plugs following the recent redecoration of the room.
Next, Morrisons for some bits and pieces ahead of lockdown for Joy and Bridie, the post office and then to Joy's. Home for lunch including the lettuce we'd picked before a walk in the woods and a couple of hours in the garden clearing leaves, feeding birds, clearing the verge outside the back gate, changing the support wheel on the big front gate so it is possible to open it wider, making getting the motorhome in and out easier.
I grabbed a cup of tea before starting on food for the children ahead of Maria's singing lesson for which we were joined by Bridie and Joseph - mash, burgers, brocolli, spinach, carrots and gravy.
Busy again and with a definite bite in the air, welcome after a long spell of wet and murky weather. More to come tomorrow.
